I am also an American veteran, and I am in awe of absolutely everything I watched on live streaming yesterday. I hope all of England and the commonwealth could feel the love, pride, and admiration sent to all of you from around the world! So much admiration for all the military forces, the bands, the security, and all those beautiful horses for making this procession positively perfect!!
Just to correct you, England is only PART of Great Britain. The coronation was of king Charles III as Sovereign of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland ... which includes Wales and Scotland. There is a HUGE difference between just England and the UK. It's like saying the Joe Biden is the President of California (because it's the state with the highest population). He's also President of Wyoming !!
@@ruairidhmunro well thank you for the correction, but when I speak of "England and the Commonwealth" I am all inclusive. I just assumed that anyone reading my post would know that I am Including Scotland, Ireland and Wales. I didn't realize that if I didn't say the UK that I had to include each place individually!
Up since 2am, on parade all day, soaked by rain, cold fingers and yet still they march in perfect order playing magnificently. What superb military example to all of us and boy does it make you appreciate and value being British. Thank our to all the military on parade for the Coronation and for compiling this memorable video.
I always enjoy watching military precision. As a United States Marine and one who also served on our Silent Drill Team, it is precision that is paramount. The British military always looks sharp and well put together. I know the hard work and dedication this takes. Bravo to the Forces! Semper Fidelis!
That's high praise from a Silent Drill Team member. I'm glad that being an "insider" gave you a deeper appreciation of the event (and hope you were able to overlook the small-but-inevitable mistakes!)
U.K. stands for United Kingdom. To begin with, even this “unity”, is a fake, it is an imposition. The Acts of Union passed by the English and Scottish Parliaments in 1707 led to the creation of the United Kingdom. Ever since then Scotland and real Scottish people are trying to bail-out of the “union” and become independent. But England like an Octopus with eight-limbed mollusc doesn’t let them go and become independent. The die already has been cast. U.K. is nothing more than England, no matter how the Aristocratic Class in that country present it to the world. Run by suppressors, against suppressed. Run by masters, against slaves. Run by those who have, against those who don’t.
A Kiwi feeling so proud of the Brits and the beautiful pomp and ceremony. Congratulations to absolutely everyone involved in putting this show on the road. Your very hard work is appreciated ❤❤
It most certainly did. Also proud to have the Kiwis take part in the ceremony, along with all of the other overseas territories and members of the Commonwealth. 👏🏻❤️ This was a day where by extension, all of our nations got to shine.

Well Thanks for your pleasant comment. I as a dual national English/German was once a translator in the German Bundeswehr and actually translated an S.A. for all foreign forces and the subject was the British Armed Forces Regimental System. Especially the American Liason Officer was interested in the origins and system from the top brass down to the freshly recruited soldier to be. It is this system that allows our forces to be top professional ànd unlike any other armed force in the world. The Commonwealth forces all contribute to our 100% dedicated and proud forces. See the Gurkhas!!!!!
I would suggest that everyone of those marching were proud as punch marching for the coronation. Not everyday that happens...something to tell their grandkids. They might be the ranks of Private, or higher...but each of them had every reason to be proud yesterday.
This is so beautiful. one of the best parades ever, Is what I like about the monarchy the military parade and they tradition their dress code.etc..perfect and on point
Stayed up to watch the coronation last night (from the Philippines). Watching these amazing military parades again. Well done. I’m proud of all of you.❤
Yes I have been trying to find the procession back to Buckingham Palace after the king was crowned!! I missed that because I had to go out and it only recorded up to the King leaving the Abbey😢
Ceremony matters. I know it can sometimes feel a bit weird, but monumental ceremonial events like a coronation really do make a difference. It’s what we do, and always should do.
Why? Most of the aspects of the ceremonies are only a couple of hundred years old. Why should what just started being done two hundred years ago, should be done forever?
@@MKRM27 To respond to your question of "why?", I'd invite you to reflect on what happens in totalitarian government-run countries, when culture and tradition are wiped out, and just hope it never happens here (although I can see that's the way our education system is pushing students) and I believe that it will happen here. Orwell, in his book, '1984' put it so well: "And when memory failed and written records were falsified-when that happened, the claim of the Party to have improved the conditions of human life had got to be accepted, because there did not exist, and never again could exist, any standard against which it could be tested."
All the music for the Coronation has been wonderful. The King did a great job of choosing the pieces played and sung in the Abbey; it was all so uplifting. And our military bands are beyond compare. Always bring a tear to my eye.
I was there in London when this was going on! I’m an Australian and I traveled 17,000km to see this event unfold. What an privilege it was to be a part of this event. I also saw the coronation concert on the big screen that night at St James’ Park and the atmosphere what unforgettable. Proud constitutional monarchist here 🇦🇺🇬🇧👑
3:55PM USA Central Time. I agree none of the news channels showed much of the marching and bands. Very disappointing. Thank goodness for all the rehearsal videos done during the past week. Loved all of them.
As an elderly lady watching from South Africa - all I can say is Splendid! Truly Splendid. Only the Brits can do this. I so admire your armed forces. And the coronation was lovely to watch. God bless you all.
Really appreciated you taking the time to comment. We continually run ourselves down but seeing the precision and hearing the music makes me proud. I still remember the.last Coronation even though I was only 9 ! Good wishes to South Africa...
Thanks so much for posting this. It was great👍 Like another poster I was sad that more music wasn’t shown by the broadcasters. A good day, even if the weather wasn’t perfect! Thanks
THANK YOU for bringing this to us from a perfect perspective! I’m in awe of all the UK 🇬🇧 Military Bands. For me, this was my main reason for watching the Coronation. You’re ALL a credit to our Country.

****** YES , MANY thanks for this VERY Superb Filming , as some have stated that we should have seen all this on the mall etc.--- thanks for your time in recording this for all to see & enjoy !!
Absolutely spectacular, what with the actual marching by the troops, the highest quality of the music played by the many various Military Bands and the incredible organisation created by the GSM and others, this whole performance is just superb.
I'm an American but have always been an Anglophile. I got up early to watch the coronation with hubby. I'm so proud of you all. There truly is no one else who can do pomp and ceremony like you! God save the King!
@@yvonneplant9434 During the 17th century, French replaced Latin as the most important language of diplomacy and international relations (lingua franca). It retained this role until approximately the middle of the 20th century, when it was replaced by English as the United States became the dominant global power following the Second World War. Stanley Meisler of the _Los Angeles Times_ said that the fact that the Treaty of Versailles was written in English as well as French was the "first diplomatic blow" against the language.
Garbage , complete drivel By the late 18th century, the British Empire had spread English through its colonies and geopolitical dominance. Commerce, science and technology, diplomacy, art, and formal education all contributed to English becoming the first truly global language. English also facilitated worldwide international communication. England continued to form new colonies, and these later developed their own norms for speech and writing. Today, English was adopted in parts of North America, parts of Africa, Australasia, and many other regions Oh and nobody likes the "metric" system , except the French
This was a masterclass in logistics. What an inspired choice, to use the commuter rail network to move these military formations from Garrisons, Air Stations and I'm assuming the Navy & Marines came up from Pompey, on passenger trains - brilliant; even Gretta Thunberg can't complain ;)
Makes me proud to be a British Military Veteran, I used to love marching behind a band, head held high, chest out, hairs on back of head standing up. Per Ardua Ad Astra! Thank you for posting.
While serving in the RAF in Cornwall I once took part in a Remembrance Day parade marching behind a civvy band whose only repertoire appeared to be the long version of Floral Dance. Probably the worst piece of marching music ever.

Proud of every single one of them did their duty for King and Country today, was executed perfectly by everyone involved, a great day to go down in history. God Save The King! 🇬🇧
I couldn’t agree more. I usually watch trooping the colours every year and the Kings birthday celebrations on the regular, and you can usually see some faults here and there or the men not being properly in alignment. This can be really annoying when your parents might be a veteran, and they can clearly see the differences and you yourself notice them. Thankfully, for the coronation, none of this was present. Everybody did their duty perfectly from beginning to end, and all of the roles were done to the very best of their abilities. It was spectacular to witness, and they have done our country, proud as well as all of the other members of the Commonwealth and all who participated. We cannot thank them enough.I can only imagine what it must’ve been like for Queen Elizabeth the second‘s coronation when there was more than double the amount of troops taking part. Obviously we have footage of this, but it’s hard to compare with HD/4K colour footage we have now.
King Charles and I are of the same age. I remember the countless magazine photos and commentary of HMS Charles through the years. I often thought of how it would be with King Charles at the helm. God Bless and God save the King.
Magnificent. Thousands of men marching and not one step out of place. Never tire of watching these ceremonies. The only time we get to see anything remotely close to this in Australia, is on ANZAC Day. God Bless them all. 🇦🇺🇬🇸
As a retired US Marine, my admiration for the British and Commonwealth military is second to none. I have served around them and been associated with them going back to the 70's. When I hear the pipes and drums, my blood boils and I'm ready to go to war again with them. Finally, I can say this without fear of of disagreement -- NO ONE CAN PUT ON A SHOW LIKE THE BRITS! God Bless Britain and the crown. May it continue to be our steadfast ally! Semper Fidelis, CWO4 USMCR [Ret], 17 February 1969 - 1 August 2004
From Britain's oldest colony, Newfoundland; there is no nation that can do this sort of thing like Britain. Even after a long hard day, immaculate and precise. Well done
Much respect from this Briton for Newfoundland. It should never be forgotten the duty and sacrifice shown by our cousins there in the service of the mother country. Newfoundland Memorial Park at Beaumont Hamel is one of the most moving places I've ever been to.
Bravo to all our armed forces but a special one to the Royal Navy, very dear to my heart. My Dad was in the Royal Navy. What a wonderful day, and every man and woman out there did us proud.
The lump in my throat appeared at 6m 4secs, when I saw the Navy. Like you, they are always extremely close to my heart. I’m SO damn proud of those men & women and always will be. Both my Uncles & Aunt were in the Royal Navy.
London is such a fascinating city. Just came back. Great people, great food. I was amazed how efficiently the city transport worked - a city to be proud of! Love from Denmark ❤
Whomever recorded this definitely understood the assignment! Outstanding job and excellent show of your great military. As a former U.S. Army Officer...I salute you 🫡

Hats off to all who organised and took part in the coronation celebrations. It amazes me how everyone cane together beautifully to play their part. It looked effortless. Congrstulations and thank you 💖💖💖
I've just smiled and smiled and smiled, while covered in goose bumps and Oooooozing pride. I'm not a military person ( although have worked 34yrs in the NHS, hahaha 🤣, !!!!!) But any sane, grateful and honest person must only be able to shout from the inside out..... " Thank you, thank you all, for putting yourself on the line for us..."

Talk about lumps to the throat, the last part in the grounds of Buckingham palace got me right in the chest.. Well done to all Army, Navy, Airforce and police, firemen, paramedics and all who stood by to serve their country God bless you all

To watch this made me cry, to watch this as we Germans possess none of it. No pride for our country or traditions, our traditions destroyed, that makes me feel so uprooted. So touched to see all these beautiful uniforms, full of meaning, a real art and legacy, the culture, the preserverance of the tradition. Dont let the woke modern world take this away from you. I so love the british culture.
This was great to see. I was a military brat and got to see military bands in the 70s and 80s in Germany and Gibraltar quite a bit and loved them, especially when they came to the school playground. Now as an adult and a musician, it's just bloody impressive. They must be knackered! Thanks for sharing this.

I’m American. We put flags up (i don’t) to display our loyalty, similar to the large amounts of military parades the uk conducts. I think as a country we need to be less ignorant and citizens need to open up more to foreign cultures. In addition the us lacks a tradition unfortunately bc we don’t really have an identity…
@@bradleyhall7728 I don’t think the UK has that many military parades. There’s been a great many recently because of so many events happening close together: the death of Prince Philip and funeral processions, Queen’s platinum jubilee, the death of the Queen and her funeral processions, the King’s coronation, all within two years. Brits are rather less overtly patriotic than the US. They sing/play the national anthem at certain times and events, but they find the US attitude to the flag and those pledges of allegiance with hand over heart to be definitely OTT. They are so tiny compared with the US, and so much older as a nation that it’s natural to have deeper and more unified cultural roots. In Canada we don’t have many military parades either. We tend to lean closer to the UK culture than the US, but we have incorporated much from our neighbours. It’s sometimes an uneasy mix. BTW, to us outsiders the US definitely has a strong identity!
Don’t feel so bad D. Schmitz . I have been on holiday in Spain and seen my fellow Brits all getting drunk and making fools of themselves while the German tourists all behaved with great dignity
Nothing brings a soldier more pride than marching in full dress uniform in a parade! My heart used to swell knowing my wife & family were watching! I only wish I could go back in time & see my Dad in his Marine dress uniform marching with his fellow Marines? RIP Dad, you were, are & will always be my Hero!
Thank you so much to whoever filmed this. Thank you to ALL the people who gave us such wonderful displays. Why oh why couldn't mainstream television have shown us the march back? Makes me mad.
Hard to put into words the feelings I had yesterday watching our armed forces in such fine form. Beyond a treat on a truly historic day. Thankyou all so much!
Such a long day for them all. But didn’t they do well? What a show they put on, plenty i]of swank and immense pride. Very well done to all, all that training and practice and on the day you were all superb. The envy of the world.
The whole day celebrated the significance of service to others in so many different ways. Impeccable display and concerted dedication. Thanks to all who are rightly proud of the awesome display of unity.
After such a long day they are still so smart, coordinated and tuneful on the way back to the station. So proud ❤❤❤

@@garylancaster8612 well, God just HAD to rain down on the reign of the cheaters... or was it Diana's tears?
@@SKRUBL0RD0% of the Brits are divorced. Main reason: adultery. Part of the tradition? Henry VIIII had how many wives?

Brilliant video!
I must say the rehearsals really payed off! Everyone looked Spiffing! From the marching to the sound just excellent!
3:55PM USA Central Time. I agree none of the news channels showed much of the marching and bands. Very disappointing. Thank goodness for all the rehearsal videos done during the past week. Loved all of them.
As an elderly lady watching from South Africa - all I can say is Splendid! Truly Splendid. Only the Brits can do this. I so admire your armed forces. And the coronation was lovely to watch. God bless you all.
😊🇬🇧
what a lovely comment, thank you so much.
Really appreciated you taking the time to comment. We continually run ourselves down but seeing the precision and hearing the music makes me proud. I still remember the.last Coronation even though I was only 9 ! Good wishes to South Africa...
God bless you to .
Your servant madam 😘
Great to see so many Commonwealth troops on parade. Including those from my homeland, Canada.
The RCMP were front and centre! God save our King!
Proud of our RCMP!
The magnificent, resplendent, disciplined ‘Mounties’ … just an absolute joy. Leading the Gold Coach. What a glorious sight. 🫡 🇨🇦
Love from 🇬🇧 xxx
There were some Aussies as well. Khaki and slouch hats is a dead giveaway.
@@impunitythebagpuss Looking smart as ever, as do your troops.
Thanks so much for posting this. It was great👍 Like another poster I was sad that more music wasn’t shown by the broadcasters. A good day, even if the weather wasn’t perfect! Thanks
THANK YOU for bringing this to us from a perfect perspective! I’m in awe of all the UK 🇬🇧 Military Bands.
For me, this was my main reason for watching the Coronation.
You’re ALL a credit to our Country.

U.K. stands for United Kingdom. To begin with, even this “unity”, is a fake, it is an imposition. The Acts of Union passed by the English and Scottish Parliaments in 1707 led to the creation of the United Kingdom. Ever since then Scotland and real Scottish people are trying to bail-out of the “union” and become independent. But England like an Octopus with eight-limbed mollusc doesn’t let them go and become independent. The die already has been cast. U.K. is nothing more than England, no matter how the Aristocratic Class in that country present it to the world. Run by suppressors, against suppressed. Run by masters, against slaves. Run by those who have, against those who don’t.
Is the time of this coronation not weird, queer, interesting?@@flotinaway7 | Пусть наш Бог хранит Үкраїну.
Watched from NZ. Feeling very proud of the boys back home. Now, just returned back to Blighty ourselves to enjoy a break and relive memories ❤
Where else in the world 🌍 would you see anything else so magnificent and well done ☺️✅ love our England 💞.

Thanks to all the forces for such a spectacular show, you are truly the best in the World.❤
A huge thank you to our armed forces!! You are bloody brilliant🥰🥰🥰🥰
Somethings we do get right .
It was a wonderful spectacle many folk here watched every moment until 2.30 am! It was worth it! 👏❤️🇳🇿❤️
****** YES , MANY thanks for this VERY Superb Filming , as some have stated that we should have seen all this on the mall etc.--- thanks for your time in recording this for all to see & enjoy !!
Thank you very much for the kind comment, I am glad you can appreciate what was unfortunately not broadcast on my channel!
I also wanted to see the bands and was disappointed I couldn't. Thank you for showing this film.
Absolutely spectacular, what with the actual marching by the troops, the highest quality of the music played by the many various Military Bands and the incredible organisation created by the GSM and others, this whole performance is just superb.
I'm an American but have always been an Anglophile. I got up early to watch the coronation with hubby.
I'm so proud of you all. There truly is no one else who can do pomp and ceremony like you! God save the King!
God bless you from the UK
Beautiful comment , love from the Uk my beautiful friends .
We appreciate it thank you
Perfect all of them!!!
Magnificent! The bagpipes are outstanding.
In both the Queens funeral and today, it’s the military marches that bring a lump to my throat, and make me so proud to be British.
It's not the only reason to be proud. You've given the world a true gift: your language, English.
How about tremendous taxes? | Миру мир!
@@yvonneplant9434 During the 17th century, French replaced Latin as the most important language of diplomacy and international relations (lingua franca). It retained this role until approximately the middle of the 20th century, when it was replaced by English as the United States became the dominant global power following the Second World War. Stanley Meisler of the _Los Angeles Times_ said that the fact that the Treaty of Versailles was written in English as well as French was the "first diplomatic blow" against the language.
Absolutely
Garbage , complete drivel By the late 18th century, the British Empire had spread English through its colonies and geopolitical dominance. Commerce, science and technology, diplomacy, art, and formal education all contributed to English becoming the first truly global language. English also facilitated worldwide international communication. England continued to form new colonies, and these later developed their own norms for speech and writing. Today, English was adopted in parts of North America, parts of Africa, Australasia, and many other regions
Oh and nobody likes the "metric" system , except the French
This was a masterclass in logistics. What an inspired choice, to use the commuter rail network to move these military formations from Garrisons, Air Stations and I'm assuming the Navy & Marines came up from Pompey, on passenger trains - brilliant; even Gretta Thunberg can't complain ;)
Waterloo provides routes to Aldershot, Pirbright at the least. I hope this “army” got at least a lunch before marching across the Thames to Waterloo
Last I heard of her she was campaigning against wind farms. No, that wasn't a typo.
@@haroldinsley171 they also put on special charter services, so there was a service, for example, that went from Waterloo to Milton Keynes
@@haroldinsley171 The Australian contingent was not amused when they found their train did not take them home.
@@haroldinsley171 we all got fed at Waterloo stn, boxes of food was handed out ❤

Makes me proud to be a British Military Veteran, I used to love marching behind a band, head held high, chest out, hairs on back of head standing up. Per Ardua Ad Astra! Thank you for posting.
While serving in the RAF in Cornwall I once took part in a Remembrance Day parade marching behind a civvy band whose only repertoire appeared to be the long version of Floral Dance. Probably the worst piece of marching music ever.
Hello Lez…… perhaps they were thinking of the Red Poppies across the green fields of France.
I love the RAF March Past. It must have been incredible to march behind that. You also have the Dambusters March and the theme from 633 Squadron.
Watching from Australia. The skill, discipline and team work looks amazing. Beautiful footage. Thank you!
As always our splendid Armed Forces did us proud. What a long day they must have had and still looking and sounding great.
When they’re not flooding the country with economic migrants from Sudan they are blocking traffic for their old fashioned sing songs
It lifts the spirits! 🎺 🎺🎺
What a wet day they had to keep their trousers and headwear dry and clean ! Salute you all,
Thank you, did the country proud today 😊👏🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴💕

Proud of every single one of them did their duty for King and Country today, was executed perfectly by everyone involved, a great day to go down in history. God Save The King! 🇬🇧
I couldn’t agree more. I usually watch trooping the colours every year and the Kings birthday celebrations on the regular, and you can usually see some faults here and there or the men not being properly in alignment. This can be really annoying when your parents might be a veteran, and they can clearly see the differences and you yourself notice them. Thankfully, for the coronation, none of this was present. Everybody did their duty perfectly from beginning to end, and all of the roles were done to the very best of their abilities. It was spectacular to witness, and they have done our country, proud as well as all of the other members of the Commonwealth and all who participated. We cannot thank them enough.I can only imagine what it must’ve been like for Queen Elizabeth the second‘s coronation when there was more than double the amount of troops taking part. Obviously we have footage of this, but it’s hard to compare with HD/4K colour footage we have now.
So sorry we didn't get to see & hear the bands during the actual parades! You are WONDERFUL! Thanks for this...
This is how to do the commute home!

@VIPICCB8 I might think Charles wouldn't have engaged in such excess as nato expansion
Magnificent. Thousands of men marching and not one step out of place. Never tire of watching these ceremonies. The only time we get to see anything remotely close to this in Australia, is on ANZAC Day. God Bless them all. 🇦🇺🇬🇸
Always love to see Australian Troops here, thank you to all of our Australian Friends.
Thankyou from the UK for that wonderful post .
As a retired US Marine, my admiration for the British and Commonwealth military is second to none. I have served around them and been associated with them going back to the 70's. When I hear the pipes and drums, my blood boils and I'm ready to go to war again with them. Finally, I can say this without fear of of disagreement -- NO ONE CAN PUT ON A SHOW LIKE THE BRITS! God Bless Britain and the crown. May it continue to be our steadfast ally! Semper Fidelis, CWO4 USMCR [Ret], 17 February 1969 - 1 August 2004

From Britain's oldest colony, Newfoundland; there is no nation that can do this sort of thing like Britain. Even after a long hard day, immaculate and precise. Well done
Much respect from this Briton for Newfoundland. It should never be forgotten the duty and sacrifice shown by our cousins there in the service of the mother country. Newfoundland Memorial Park at Beaumont Hamel is one of the most moving places I've ever been to.
Thank you eldest , and I remember being taught at school how to properly pronounce you , "please understand say new/found/land"

Loved every minute! They were amazing. 🇺🇸
Bravo to all our armed forces but a special one to the Royal Navy, very dear to my heart. My Dad was in the Royal Navy. What a wonderful day, and every man and woman out there did us proud.

I've just smiled and smiled and smiled, while covered in goose bumps and Oooooozing pride. I'm not a military person ( although have worked 34yrs in the NHS, hahaha 🤣, !!!!!) But any sane, grateful and honest person must only be able to shout from the inside out..... " Thank you, thank you all, for putting yourself on the line for us..."

Still proud. Well done all the troops. Superb.
So much history represented in all those uniforms, Proud to say that i was once a part of that. Well done to all those involved.
Talk about lumps to the throat, the last part in the grounds of Buckingham palace got me right in the chest.. Well done to all Army, Navy, Airforce and police, firemen, paramedics and all who stood by to serve their country God bless you all
Me too! 💕💕💕
Thank you , I'm a very proud father of one of the city of London police officers lining the route, he had a lovely time with the friendly crowd, but got soaked in his best number 1 uniform.

To watch this made me cry, to watch this as we Germans possess none of it. No pride for our country or traditions, our traditions destroyed, that makes me feel so uprooted. So touched to see all these beautiful uniforms, full of meaning, a real art and legacy, the culture, the preserverance of the tradition. Dont let the woke modern world take this away from you.

From the former British colony of the Utila Bay island, residing in Mexico enjoying the marching bands and coronation.
This was great to see. I was a military brat and got to see military bands in the 70s and 80s in Germany and Gibraltar quite a bit and loved them, especially when they came to the school playground. Now as an adult and a musician, it's just bloody impressive. They must be knackered! Thanks for sharing this.

You are British culture… just because we had a scrap it’s ok.
I’m American. We put flags up (i don’t) to display our loyalty, similar to the large amounts of military parades the uk conducts. I think as a country we need to be less ignorant and citizens need to open up more to foreign cultures. In addition the us lacks a tradition unfortunately bc we don’t really have an identity…
@@bradleyhall7728 I don’t think the UK has that many military parades. There’s been a great many recently because of so many events happening close together: the death of Prince Philip and funeral processions, Queen’s platinum jubilee, the death of the Queen and her funeral processions, the King’s coronation, all within two years. Brits are rather less overtly patriotic than the US. They sing/play the national anthem at certain times and events, but they find the US attitude to the flag and those pledges of allegiance with hand over heart to be definitely OTT. They are so tiny compared with the US, and so much older as a nation that it’s natural to have deeper and more unified cultural roots. In Canada we don’t have many military parades either. We tend to lean closer to the UK culture than the US, but we have incorporated much from our neighbours. It’s sometimes an uneasy mix. BTW, to us outsiders the US definitely has a strong identity!
Don’t feel so bad D. Schmitz . I have been on holiday in Spain and seen my fellow Brits all getting drunk and making fools of themselves while the German tourists all behaved with great dignity
I served in Germany ( Minden) in the 70s, tonight for dinner I had a Currywurst mit Chips !!! My little treat !!
Nothing brings a soldier more pride than marching in full dress uniform in a parade! My heart used to swell knowing my wife & family were watching! I only wish I could go back in time & see my Dad in his Marine dress uniform marching with his fellow Marines? RIP Dad, you were, are & will always be my Hero!
That was great. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much to whoever filmed this. Thank you to ALL the people who gave us such wonderful displays. Why oh why couldn't mainstream television have shown us the march back? Makes me mad.
